    WHILE Woodside’s Browse project is embroiled in opposition from Green groups, leaving its fate uncertain, analysts at Commonwealth Bank say bigger is better. They have put forward the idea of a larger plant to improve project economics.

  2. Our friends at Exxon Mobil are still at it,worlds no.1 climate denier Rex Tillerson.

    ExxonMobil has been able to amplify and prop up work that has been discredited by reputable climate scientist. ExxonMobil is also connected to nine of the top ten authors of climate change denial papers. Wei Hook Soon, an astrophysicist with the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics has co-authored several papers repudiating climate change. His work has been highly criticized by climate scientists for content and for his funding by the American Petroleum Institute, including ExxonMobil. Soon has also received funding from the Koch Foundation, a charity of the Koch Industries, an oil and gas conglomerate.

    ExxonMobil also funds the Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change. Sherwood B. Idso, the organization’s president, has co-authored 67 papers, and Patrick Michaels has co-authored 28 papers denying the data on climate change.

    In 2008 ExxonMobil pledged to quit funding climate change deniers, however they are still influential in climate change denial through their funding of several organizations. They also pay for opinion advertorials on the New York Times opinion pages.


    WTF!!!

    FEDERAL Labor is urging the states to privatise their energy assets and Western Australia to dump its policy of reserving gas for local industry, warning that government interventions are crowding out investment by private players and failing to curb price rises.

    In a move that last night reignited an acrimonious internal Labor debate, federal Energy Minister Martin Ferguson said a new energy white paper would urge all states to privatise to encourage competition.


    WA - BIGGER THAN QUATAR - BUT NO GAS FOR LOCALS???
